Saw it a while back, but that guy is so lucky. Just goes to show why you shouldn't shoot targets which might fight back.

wouldn't the bullet have to ricochet multiple times? because i can't see the bullet magically turning around. Which makes this even more unlikely. and lucky on his part.

I would think that you count on one hand the people in this world that have been hit by a .50 cal round, get up dust themselves off and go home Shocked

It really happen to me ,My mother who lives in the house next to mine was always thinking I was shutting with my gun ,there was the beginning of December and kids were using fire crackers or something in our street ,I was in my bedroom with my First wife ,we were having fun Roll Eyes

you know! the my mother began to knock my door at 10PM noon like crazy screaming like crazy aaalex are you shotting with your gunshot ,don't dooo it AAAlex I went Mad ,I was laid down in my bed I point a bathroom where in construction I point the concrete wall My wife Don't and fire the gun and simultaneously Bang I say outch a piece of the wall must hit me but something else where burning my lower parts ,was the hot bullet in my middle leg, see this happend to a 90º angle the bullet lost all the power against the wall ..
Maybe the .50 (I thing is not a .50) hit a rock and went back to him..
is this understandable what I just said here? Undecided

I never tell this ,because the only witness haven't seen her in 14 years,was my ex, No buddy here even believe me this Embarrassed

I believe you! Ricochets happen all the time. Just that was a 38, at close range, not a 50 at 100 yards.
It sounded like they were hitting different targets to see the power, and shot at iron, causing it to come back. At the end you can hear them say "Lets not use iron again."

Yeah it has to be common ,what really confuse me is a .50 its tripods its too small ,I've seen it I got one as my key holder for more than ,JeZZ! 30 years Shocked

wasn't realize that , and its too powerfull bullet and above all the size where the powder is ,is like 20cm large, and Roll Eyes

Only Rambo and Arnold can hold it with its bear hard Grin

maybe I'm an ignorant but only huge tripods or warrior planes f-16-18-22 etc can hold and shoot this type of giant bullets who can pass thru a truck intact from the front to the end and maybe continue with 3 or 4 more cars before stop..but I can wrong Undecided

18Cm large Shocked
